WINDOWS XP PROBLEMS (big surprise)

[Guest]

I had a computer it caught fire so I built another one. I
just put a new drive in this other computer and cannot
for the life of me find intructions to print, on how to
install XP on a new hard drive. CAN ANYONE HELP?????? I
would like to get past the installation part so that I
may advance to one of the other newsgroups to fix of the
other problems that I know I will have with XP.

Greetings --

How can you possibly call your inability to install the OS a
"WinXP problem?" If the OS isn't installed, it can't very well be
causing any problems, now, can it?

Simply boot from the WinXP installation CD. You'll be offered the
opportunity to delete, create, and format partitions as part of the
installation process. (You may need to re-arrange the order of boot
devices in the PC's BIOS to boot from the CD.)
